Sounds intriguing! I love Focal's signature sound and will definitely consider these for tracking and those moments during mixing when you really need to zoom into miniscule details and can't use open-back headphones (in those scenarios I often find that even the sound of my mouse or keyboard gets distracting). As for headphones in general and their ability to reproduce transients and low-end information properly, this is much less of a problem with higher-quality headphones. It's well worth looking into planarmagnetic headphones in particular (e. g. Audeze LCD-X or some HifiMan models), which tend to offer superior bass response and crisper transients. That said, the Focal Clear MG is very good in these regards, too, but very expensive.
In every video I say if I’m paid or not. Either way no one gets an opinion. Just if it’s a priority to make a video. That’s backfired for some products I didn’t like. They paid for a bad review. In this case I was part of the testing group before they were released. But wanted to law a video because I liked them. I do plan to pick them up.

I'd love to hear if anyone already owns the Focal Clears (open back) vs these?
How are they compared to the Neumann headphones?
Is there a graph of them?
I am Getting these. Try the Focal Clear Mg Professional. my first open back and love them.
I'll second that. Clear MG are amazing and also very easy to drive.
@@sidetrackwalkerTry Clear OG. They're better than MG.
I would love to experience a high quality set of headphones
$700 - for headphones.
why not? Have you heard them compared to 100 dollar headphones?
These aren't even in the group of the most expensive headphones out there.
That's actually extremely reasonable for what they are
You are clearly new to the headphone community. Google Sennheiser he-1.
Haha ... Whatever. I'm betting this was a paid mention/review (whether for product or money).
